Abstract: Bubble compression in a pipelined central processing unit (CPU) of a computer system is provided. A bubble represents a stage in the pipeline that cannot perform any useful work due to the lack of data from an earlier pipeline stage. When a particular pipeline stage has stalled, the CPU instructions that have already passed through this stage continue to move ahead and leave behind vacant stages or bubbles. If a bubble is introduced into a pipeline and the pipeline subsequently stalls, the disclosed CPU takes advantage of this stalled condition to compress the previously introduced bubble.

Abstract: Scan conversion apparatus for improving the vertical resolution of a television image for display comprises a field store for storing the previously transmitted field and a line store for storing video data representative of the previous line including the most recent picture element. In an interlaced system, the two vertically adjacent picture elements and the intermediate picture element transmitted in the previous field are used to provide five selectable values. The video data is also tested in accordance with three tests comprising a rank ordering test, a vertically sharp transition test and a motion test. According to the results of these tests, one of the five alternative values is chosen as an interpolated value for display with the vertically adjacent values for the currently transmitted field. The selection process may be assisted by the provision of an auxiliary signal indicative of the probability of motion of a predetermined block of data.

Abstract: 2.1 Methods for offset voltage control of discriminators are known. The offset voltage is controlled by means of a superimposition device which is provided for superimposing a control signal onto an input signal. A discriminator is provided for discriminating the output signal of the superimposition device and for generating a regenerated output digital signal and a fault signal. A control generator generates the control signal as a function of the digital fault signal. 2.2 The invention discloses a non-complex circuit arrangement for compensating an offset voltage, in which a compensation signal (KS) is subtracted from the input signal (ES) in a superimposition device (1), the resulting signal being digitised in a discriminator (2) with n bits and the digital signal (DS) being used to form the compensation signal (KS), in such a way that a suitable linear combination of m bits of the n bits (m < n) available is carried out in a logic switching element (6) and the result of this linear combination is fed to the superimposition device (1) via a suitable filter (4). 2.3 Application of the offset voltage control is in single-dimensional or multi-dimensional multilevel signals, in particular 64 QAM signals. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and a device are described for printing all round a metallic hollow body, in particular a can body, by means of thermal transfer printing, wherein ink particles arranged on an auxiliary support are introduced by diffusion, for example, into a dye-receptive layer on the can body using heat and pressure. The method and device are designed in such a way that the can body is heated up briefly with the auxiliary support applied and the transfer process thus initiated is subsequently completed at a preferably dropping temperature. Thus by suppressing the lateral migration of the dye molecules during the transfer process, visually sharp images on the can body and a satisfactory closed print of the overlapping region of the auxiliary support are achieved.

Abstract: The present invention relates to frequency synthesis with a controlled oscillator (20) included in a phase locked loop, where the frequency of the oscillator output signal is divided (22) periodically by different integers, such that the frequency is, on average, divided by a value which is equal to an integer N plus or minus a numeric fraction whose absolute value is smaller than one. The phase position of pulses formed in this way is compared with the phase position of pulses which derive from a reference signal (10, 12), therewith forming a phase error signal. For the purpose of suppressing periodic variations of an oscillator control signal as a result of phase jitter, there is added or subtracted to the phase error signal, in a known manner, a correction value (24, 26) which is dependent on the aforementioned numeric fraction. In order to eliminate the need to multiply the correction value by a factor which is proportional to the inverted value of the integer N, the phase error signal is instead amplified with a factor N (28) prior to adding or subtracting the correction value. The loop bandwidth is also held constant in this way. <IMAGE>

Un alésage conique débouchant sans gradations en échelle est ménagé dans une pièce en plastique de forme maniable en un seul matériau à coefficient élevé d'adhérence. Etant donné que l'alésage est débouchant, on peut sans problème extraire des couvercles coincés dans l'ouvre-bouteilles en les poussant d'en haut avec le doigt. On a mis en particulier l'accent sur une structure simple, maniable et pratique qui assure une utilisation optimale. Une deuxième version avec un étrier métallique (3) enchâssé permet d'ouvrir également des bouteilles ayant des bouchons serrables à couronne. De même, le fait que tout l'ouvre-bouteilles est composé d'un seul matériau assure une production extrêmement économique.
